Signs of Prosperity Everywhere AP-
 parent.
 Things are generally booming mp the Nau- gatuck valley. It is valley which, if not literally flowing with milk and honey, is con- stantly prospering and increasing in wealth. Our large manufacturers of brick near this city are every year sending millions of brick to be used in the enlargement of manufacto- ries already established or the erection of new manufactories in Ansonia, Birmingham, Naugatuck and Waterbury. Up in Nauga- tuck at present big enlargement of the rubber factory there is in progress. It will give employment to many more hands. Win sted is prospering also, and some fine morn ing the people up there will wake up and find that they have 8 soldiers monument erected and awaiting dedication. The town is moving now in the direction of having 8 monument erected. It is also bound to have the best there is going in the way of streets and apparatus for improving them, as on Saturday it bought $1,000 Farrell & Mars den stone crusher. Ansonia and Derby are now in speedy communication with each other by horse railroad, and the road has hardly ceased to be a nine days wonder in the town. With the Little Derby railroad extension completed, and it looks now as if it would be extended over the identical route laid out by the late Housatonic Valley rail- road company, the valley bids fair to blos- som as the rose-metaphorically speaking and New Haven to share in the increase of prosperity

Much Higher Prices in Stocks at the Opening and a Steady Advance-An Unfavorab1e Bank Statement Does Not Prevent the Buoyancy of the Market.
 NEW YORK, Sept. 3. Mir. J. Pierpont Morgan's statement respecting the future control of the Baltimore and Ohio prop erlies caused tremendous boom in stocks to-day. The largest trade done half holiday 292 379 shares. Seeding and Western Union Tele- graph were the two favorites with. Richmond Ter minal good third and St. Paul not far behind. No other stock approached any of these in point of tvity although some of the quieter properties and specialties scored very sharp advances limited transactions, Manhattan Elevated, for instance, jumping 54 and netting 415. The market opened in bear panic. The ''shorts'' bid wildly for stocks, and result the first prices were at prising advances yesterdays closing; in faetthe opening figures in good many cases was the best or close to the best of the day. Western Union sold at 76 and at 77 at the same moment, although 76 is officially quoted the opening price. Reading opened Us higher, at 6014, advanced to 6i16 and closed at 62zS Richmond Terminal finished with advance of 214, but per cent. under it's top figures.

THE END OF THE RACES.

At Charter Oak Park Saturday-Gov.
 ernor H1ll Winner of the Final
 Race-PatfOn's Remarkable Career
 Matched Against the Famous Cling
 stone.
 HARTFORD, Sept. 3.-The races at Charter Oak Park came to an end to-day. One heat in the 2:33 race was raced yesterday and to- day the two remaining heats stamped Cover nor Hill as the winner. His fast work at Albany has been surpassed here. He dropped his record of 2:2614 down to s:211s yesterday and to 2:20& o-day-fast work, indeed, for the 2:33 class. Yet it is quietly whispered that he has shown a last half in 1:05, and can cover full mile in 2:15 or better. His per formance lifts him into higher class.
 This year much and in fact most of the in- terest was centered in the five year old phe- nomenon Patron, by Pancoast. The fact that the wonderful young stallion was eligible for the great stake event warranted an early pre- diction that he would have little trouble in securing the prize. The leading trainers and drivers searched in vain for 8 newcomer that would give promise of making any sort of race for the Kentucky flyer. When the final payments were made on Tuesday evening, the day preceding the race, and the names Of the SIX COmpeClLOrS were announced, common consent made Patron sure wins ner. Two of the original nominations went considerable speed and was very gams, MT. Riley pluckily determined to enter Dan for the big stake, trusting to the fortunes of war for g splitting up of heats, when the endur- ance of his horse might give him 8 chance to assert itself. But Wednesday came and found Patron in the pink of condition, 'Hit to trot for mans life," as dropping field buyer sadly admitted after seeing the stallion jog ged in the morning. Odds were offered that he would win in straight heats, and the only things left to attract the talent were the se- lection of the winner for second money and the chances of the great star breaking the stallion record. Patron did all that could be asked from the most acting. He danced away ahead of struggling field for three consecu- tive miles and trotted in 2:1734, 2:17, and 2:1S, or an average rate of 217 11-12 for the race. An untimely shower after the second heat made the track some three seconds slower than it had been, and defeated all chances of lowering the top notch for stallions of 2:13 IA, made by the sett course in 1884. The last half of the third heat was covered in 1:O7, so that had the rain held off there is little doubt that Patron could have gone the mile better than a:14, though it is an open question whether he could have even equalled the record.
 Barring accidents, this horse has a great future before him. 1T consider him the the best race horse living" said an experi- enced horseman from Minneapolis who has followed the western circuit for years, and there is much reason for the sweeping asser- tion Patron is now matched against the famous Clingstone.

4 Scaly, Itching. Skin Disease with Endless Suffering Cured
 by Cuticura Remedies.

It affords me pleasure to give you this report of the cure of our little grandchild by your CUTICURA REMEDIES. When six months old his left hand be- gan to swell and had every appearance of large boil. We poultced it, but all to no purpose. About five months after it became running sore. Soon other sores formed. He then had two of them on each hand and as his blood became more and more sore came the chin, beneath the under lip, which was very offensive. His head was solid Scab, discharging great deal. This was his condition at twenty two months old when undertook the care Of him, his mother having died when he was little more than year old of consumption (scrofula of course). He could walk little, but could not get up if he fell down and could not move when in bed, having of his hands. I immediately com menced with the Cuticura Remedies, using the Cutcura and Cutfcura Soap freely and when he had taken one bottle of the Cutcura Resolvent his head completely cured and he was improved in every way. We were very much encouraged and con- tinued the of the Remedies for year and a half One sore after another healed, a bonY matter forming in each one of these five deep ones just be- fore healing, which would finally grow loose and were taken out; then they would heal rapidly. One of these ugly bone formations l preserved. After taking dozen and a half bottles he was complete ly cured, and is now, at the age of six years, a strong and healthy child. The scars on his hands must always remain; his hands strong, though we once feared he would never be able to use them All that physicians did for him did him no good All who saw the child before using the Cut1cura Eeme- dies and see the child consider 1t a wonderful If the above facts of any use to you, you are at liberty to use them.
